The pandemic is still making it so that many are encouraged to stay at home, and travel restrictions remain in place. With this being the case, people are looking for other ways to ease their minds’ wanderlust and plan for future travel. Many people are turning to tech, and one of the most popular outlets has been listening to podcasts. There are podcasts for a wide range of topics, even within the subject of travel itself. Below we will highlight some of the top travel podcasts users are listening to in 2021, as featured on Active Travel Adventures
